Listening || to my next door neighbor play the banjo
Writing || sonnets
Random || I listen to a lot of angry music.
A conversation:
Him: *scanning through radio stations with no luck* Fscking radio!
Me: *having watched the radio stations carefully* Do you ever listen to 104.9?
Him: No... *tuning to 104.9* What's on 104.9?
Me: Music you would listen to.
Him: *song comes on 104.9* SWEET.
I should really fix this site up a bit. Maybe later. Maybe when it's not the beginning of the quarter and I have an entire book to read and write a reflection on by Sunday. Or was it Monday? I should figure that out. Sooner rather than later.

Feeling || thoughtful
Being || somewhat counterproductive
Particularly quoteworthy quote about death that I came across today:
"But we'll all keep on going and it will be alright, it just hurts for now."
-Caroline Curtis (9th Elsewhere)
Gets me thinking...

Reading || sample college application essays
Writing || A Guide to Personalities for the Science Lab-Oriented
Random || "Type 6: Temperamental Bunsen Burners"
Only a friend like Anya would understand what I meant when my status message was "Da di di do..." and only she would change it to "Camus." Man, how'd I get so lucky? Our friendship is so complicated, so convoluted that sometimes I wonder how I remember every little detail of our many-faceted relationship. Is it normal to have a friend with whom you're in so deep that no one else can quite match that level of understanding? Is it a bad thing that most people don't understand us? And why can't I have more friends like that? Do I consider myself too busy to cultivate relationships?
On another note, I started writing a short essay-ish kind of thing. Hopefully it'll be good enough to submit to Soundings. So far it makes me hilariously amused, with not a lot of reason. It's a fun exercise in metaphors though. If only I could use it for a college application essay. According to AP Lang, it would be a risky but potentially high payoff essay. The interesting thing about it is that it shows my nerdy/scientific side, while also reflecting my creative/writer side. Oh well. It'd be too long anyway.
I'm becoming really paranoid about all these "to be" verbs in my writing. Thank goodness narratives don't need them as much.

Listening || Undeveloped Story - Anberlin
Feeling || overwhelmed
Random || I'm someone's poetry band-aid.
I'm seriously aching in places. I need to read some Plato now, but my GOSH my joints feel like creaking hinges on an old lady's door. My mouth is thick with the remnants of a cookie, and apple-juice-y water isn't about to help.
I realized I'm lacking in a romantic interest at this point. No one is particularly prominent, and my life seems to be on overdrive right now. Is a love interest the last thing I need or would it be a welcome relief?
"Comment draguez-vous?" Most ridiculous french discussion question EVER asked.
I really have no idea why I'm writing tonight. This morning. Whatever. Damnit I ache.
